The fact that you repeatedly mention your PE license as if its an achievement only proves my point. And for the record I am 29.

Demand for recognition for the most mundane tasks is right.

Hahaha, its not just Detroit, it is this entire generation. They have destroyed the internet, bars, television, music, society etc. The entitlement and demand for recognition for the most mundane, everyday tasks is mind blowing. Mind-fucking-blowing

Money is great, when I have it.

I'm at a complete loss. How is it fucking constitutional for the government to say how a company has to sell its product!?!?! How is Tesla's strategy any different than say Apple's? I know the reason is because of the car dealers political/financial influence but this is a complete fucking joke.

If you're mad about things, just take a few million dollars out of your rainy day slush fund and pay for the legislation that you want.

Gettin' real tired of your shit, Washington.

The Big Manufacturers prefer dealerships. Once the car leaves the plant it's technically sold since the dealership buys the car to retail at a whatever margin they can capture. The dealers hold the inventory, leaving the manufacturers to focus on making thier product. It's a lot of cash to have tied up if they were…

Everything but cars and people.

Someone needs to remind the Republicans in Texas and Arizona they're supposed to be "pro-business" and against "government regulations".

I continue to believe that the biggest problem with highway driving is the people doing the driving. I take a couple 2000+ mile road trips every year (can't stand the TSA) and I really do enjoy the highways.

I'm gonna have to disagree on many points. The way I have been able to almost completely remove driving angst and rage from my life in the past was to switch from fast cars to flabby cars with cruise controls, add an excellent sound system, roll down the windows and let an elbow hang out while cruising at a medium…

I made this one for my `67 BMW 1600. It's a 1920s ceramic door knob attached to a piece of pipe. I've since replace the hex bot set screw with an allen-head screw.

Looks like someone just poked around in Photoshop! History.....those that fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it.

The e34 is the 5er equivalent of the e36

The first engine lasted 120,000 miles. The replacement engine has 100,000 miles. How much is it worth when it is a 240,000 mile grey market wagon in need of a very expensive engine replacement? The mileage hurts it as an ownership prospect and the lack of the original engine doesn't help its prospects as a future…

Because your average consumer will buy a $300000 DLMS machine so that they don't have to pay $500 to buy a replacement part for their car....
